Abstract reasoning in autism: a dissociation between concept formation and concept identification.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Although heritability explains a large proportion of the variance in old-age cognition, studies on the influence of specific genes have been inconclusive. We investigated the individual and combined effects of four single polymorphisms, previously associated with episodic memory, on cognitive performance and ...

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Recent models suggest that face and word recognition may rely on overlapping cognitive processes and neural regions. In support of this notion, face recognition deficits have been demonstrated in developmental dyslexia. Here we test whether the opposite association can also be found, that is, impaired reading...
